True Christian Love Story

Loved everything about this book. It summarized the characteristics of a Christian. Also, how a man and woman should find love for each other that is not lustful.

Favorite Story for 25+ years!

I don't even know how many times I've read or listened to this story. It is an all time favorite. The characters are so believable. Janette Oke has done a wonderful job writing this series. I love the fact that these books are wholesome. Thanks!

perfectly done

I loved everything about this book and the narration. It was as if an elderly woman was telling the story of someone in her family--her parents or grandparents . My great-grandparents homesteaded in the plains of Nebraska and my grandparents told story after story of what it was like growing up during that time. This story brought back memories of listening to them tell about their parents and the neighbors that lived around them. As for the complaints about the speech patterns, I had a great-uncle who spoke in the exact same pattern of speech. If you are only a couple of generations from those pioneer days, you will love this book.

Excellent Christian Fiction

I must have read this series 3 or 4 times. The movies are great as well. I really enjoyed listening this time.
